Jeff's Photobabble

Metro stations are naturally fascinating, but just standing in the right place isn’t enough for a great shot… the other commuters also have to contribute.

On the top deck of a parking garage. See? I can do pretty.

Photography is frowned upon at my client site, but I forgot that for a few moments when I saw this bizarre cloud coverage. Thankfully, the uniformed gentleman who stopped to admire my work knew a great picture when he saw one.

I guess USPS stickers get used for a lot of street art because they’re mostly blank and easy to swipe. Usually, it’s a simple tag, but every now and then they get a little more… arty.

I don’t normally do staged shots, unless I think I’ll be really hilarious. Ideally, this would have been something sillier like a teddy bear or bobble head, but none of that stuff was handy. Nevertheless, this somehow met my hilarity threshold.

I almost didn’t photograph this car. There were more visually interesting tags on the train, but as it began rolling, I felt the need to document my confusion with this particular collection. I saw the ADM logo, the stars of David, the bizarre title, the positive affirmations,  the crossed out “classic” tag…. Even now, still seems hard to really understand how many hands were at work here — which are standalone signatures, and which are commentaries on the others.
